Greetings Grade 5 Families,
It is that time of year where we start planning classes for the Bayside Band program! Usually we tour each of the elementary feeder schools and put on a demonstration concert encouraging the students to sign up. However this year we have had to adapt to the current situation and make this process available online.
Does your child have an interest in music?
Is he/she creative?
